He is my one and only, my significant other, my hero. He was born and raised in a gang environment and chose not to join; he was told he would never make a good Marine, and he enlisted; he was told he would never walk again, after being severely wounded in Fallujah, Iraq, and today he walks without canes, crutches, or walker.
He is my hero because he loves me, a widow who thought love was never going to come her away again.
He is my hero .... because I love him.
